Happy 250th birthday, America! 🇺🇲

Dan M. Lee @daninva.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

We have a visa for seasonal crab pickers but we don't have one for the people who care for our parents. Care is the fastest growing job in America. But there's still no real way in. Why, and what actually works, in my latest on LinkedIn 👇

Spectacular night for Virginia 🚀🚀

That experience is what motivates me professionally. Those work as caregivers don't just need a thank-you. They need better protections, a decent wage, and a coherent system. Today and every day.

I became a caregiver for my mom and quickly discovered what millions of families already know: the healthcare system isn't designed for the people navigating it. You kind of just have to wing it. And the burden of stitching it all together falls squarely on the family.

If you’re not for a public or single-payer option in healthcare: are you planning to decline Medicare when you turn 65? Trying to understand where the line for health coverage actually is: the concept, or who gets access to it?

One of those days that reminds you why public service matters. Honored to witness Governor Abigail Spanberger’s inauguration. A meaningful new chapter for Virginia!

We ended on a joyful note when he pulled out his harmonica and led everyone in a moving rendition of “This Land Is Your Land.” It was a simple, powerful reminder that our country, and our Commonwealth, belong to all of us, no matter our age, background, or circumstance.

It was inspiring to see how deeply US Senator Tim Kaine cares about the welfare of Virginia’s seniors: listening to their stories, asking thoughtful questions, and reaffirming his commitment to ensuring every older Virginian can age with dignity and access to quality care.

We don’t have a left vs. right problem in healthcare, we have a cost and accountability problem. Virginia can lead by fixing the system instead of fighting over it.

Dan M. Lee @daninva.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

Medicaid isn't a handout, it's an investment that gives families a shot to thrive. As Virginia faces cuts, work requirements & higher eligibility thresholds, we can lead with smarter solutions. Let’s invest in people, not pull the rug out.

Just take the opposite of every recommendation from this panel, and you'll be fine.

Trump seizing DC’s police isn’t “law & order.” It’s authoritarianism in plain sight. If he can do it in DC, he can do it anywhere. The only firewall we have is us. Vote midterms. Vote local. Vote state. Every ballot is a brick in the wall against tyranny. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6cb17Fy/

Public health shouldn't be political, it’s about protecting kids. Florida’s move to eliminate vaccine requirements endangers us all.

Trump torched health care for 17M Americans. It’s time to fight back with something bolder.

Dan M. Lee @daninva.bsky.social · 25/08/2025

Trump’s blowing up the federal government. But what if we used the same tools to actually help people? ✅️ Universal healthcare ✅️ A real living wage ✅️ Affordable care for our kids and parents. Out of the ashes, we don’t rebuild, let's RE-IMAGINE.

Enough defense. Democrats need offense. California’s fight is the blueprint: meet fire with fire, and show voters there is a plan.

DC’s police just got taken over. The National Guard is on its streets. And the Mayor? Legally powerless. If they can do it here, they can do it anywhere.

Trump just fired the nation’s top labor economist for telling the truth. I spent 4 years at the World Bank. When leaders start firing the data people, democracy is in danger. Here's why this matters more than you think.

Today, student loans are racking up interest again, including mine. Trump just killed the most affordable repayment plan. Meanwhile, Australia canceled $10B in student debt on Day 1. We can do the same for working class families.

Dan M. Lee @daninva.bsky.social · 30/07/2025

We’ve seen what 6 months of Trump can do. Now imagine what a bold Democrat could do, with the same powers, but a different purpose. Fire the cronies. Fund care. Deliver a real living wage. No more excuses.

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is unconscionable. I’ve repeatedly spoken up to support more humanitarian aid, and today I’m calling on the Trump administration to press Netanyahu for immediate change.

It’s time we treat affordable dependent care as what it really is: essential infrastructure for a thriving economy.

💡 Child care costs more than college. Senior care drains families. Care workers are underpaid. And our economy? Losing over $600 billion a year. We don’t just have a care crisis, we have an economic emergency.

$7.25/hr is a reminder that the system is broken. Adjusted for economic growth, workers deserve $25/hr. Yet, full-time workers today can't make a living. This shouldn't be a partisan issue, it's about human dignity and fair compensation.

Keep an eye on them. Built to serve the MENA region with world-class tech, trust, and transparency, BurjX is poised to become the Coinbase of the Middle East. Proud of the team, especially co-founders, Omar Abbas and Adam Ferris, for their relentless vision and grit. This is just the beginning.

Dan M. Lee @daninva.bsky.social · 21/07/2025

In Dubai last week for the official launch of BurjX, a milestone years in the making. I had the privilege of playing a small role in its early journey, and seeing it come to life with full regulatory approval is nothing short of inspiring.

Nine seniors died in a tragic fire, begging for help in an assisted living facility. Just below CNN’s breaking news alert? An ad for Superman. I get that news runs like a business. But moments like this make it painfully clear: something about our priorities is broken.

Here's been my view on casinos: they're nothing more than poverty factories with velvet ropes. A casino shouldn't be part of an economic plan, it's simply a distraction from not having one. No Tysons Casino!

We must be relentlessly focused on the struggles of working-class families, like my mom and dad. This isn’t just policy for me, it’s personal. Congrats to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for showing what it means to listen and lead. Democracy should be powered by people, not the purse.
